"Ukrainian Drone Strikes Disrupt Russian Oil and Gas Industry"

Gas prices in Russia have surged to a six-month high following drone strikes on oil facilities, causing fears of a supply and demand imbalance. Refineries being forced to suspend operations have led to a rise in prices, with AI-95 gasoline exceeding 60,000 rubles per ton. The Russian government reintroduced a ban on gasoline exports to stabilize domestic prices, while the energy ministry downplayed concerns, stating that fuel prices on the forecourt were stable despite wholesale market fluctuations.
